Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 vs Nexen N Blue 4Season 2
Across dry, wet, and snow, the pattern is clear: Bridgestone consistently stops shorter and handles more precisely-especially in the wet, where it often delivers 10-18% shorter braking and markedly stronger aquaplaning resistance. Nexen counters with quieter, more comfortable road manners, strong ice braking, and attractive value. Buyers essentially choose between all-weather safety leadership and budget-friendly competence with winter leanings.

Real World Driver Reviews
Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 Driver Reviews
Most drivers rate the Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 highly, praising its strong wet and dry grip, excellent aquaplaning resistance, and reassuring performance in light snow for an all-season tyre. Many also note good comfort and low noise, with several reporting slow wear and long expected tread life. The main trade-offs are a muted steering feel that reduces driving engagement and slightly higher rolling resistance/fuel use. Overall, it's a safe, confidence-inspiring choice with a few comfort/feedback compromises.

Nexen N Blue 4Season 2 Driver Reviews
Drivers of the Nexen N Blue 4Season 2 report a strong all-rounder with standout snow and ice traction, a very quiet and comfortable ride, and solid performance in typical dry and wet conditions. Many highlight excellent value and even improved fuel economy. A minority note that dry/wet grip can feel merely average at times and that traction in heavy standing water isn't class-leading, but overall satisfaction is high.

Conclusion
The Nexen N Blue 4Season 2 is a sensible, comfort-forward alternative. It's quieter, often rides a touch smoother, performs very well on snow and excels on ice braking in ADAC, and usually costs less. Its main compromise is wet security-particularly aquaplaning-where it trails by sizable margins. If you frequently face heavy rain or standing water, Bridgestone is the safer bet; if you prioritize price, comfort and winter-centric performance with only occasional heavy rain, Nexen fits the brief.
Key Differences
- Wet braking: Bridgestone often 6-18% shorter (e.g., 50.5 m vs 61.4 m, 45.0 m vs 52.9 m)
- Aquaplaning resistance: Bridgestone clearly stronger in straight and curved (often 10-40% edge)
- Dry performance: Bridgestone consistently stops shorter and handles quicker, though margins are modest
- Winter split: Nexen better on ice braking and occasionally snow braking; Bridgestone steadier overall on snow
- Comfort/noise: Nexen quieter and slightly more comfortable
- Value: Nexen typically cheaper; Bridgestone offers better safety-led performance and higher overall rankings

Footnote
This page has been developed using tyre industry testing best practices. This means we are only comparing tests which have had both tyres in the same test.
Why is this important? Tyre testing is heavily affected by things like surface grip levels and surface temperature, which means you can only compare values from the same day. During a tyre test external condition changes are calculated into the overall results, but it is not possible to calculate this between tyre tests performed on different days or at different locations.
As a result you will see other tests on Tyre Reviews which feature both the %s and %s, but as they weren't conducted on the same day, the results are not comparable.
Lots of other websites do this sort of tyre comparison, Tyre Reviews doesn't.
